4:08 am
social issues if he is nominated to be defense second. he's not going to run health and human services. it's the department of defense, the pentagon, but some democrats are concerned about that. republicans are concerned, as well, because hagel winds up with the president. he was opposed to some issues in iraq, also in afghanistan and that's what republicans don't like. he bucked the republican party and really lines up with the president which the president might see as a strength if he decides to nominate hagel. >> all right, and some fascinating numbers coming out of the president's vacation in hawaii where he was for nine days. can you share those with us. >> reporter: it was supposed to be a 15-day vacation, do you remember, so here's how it all breaks down. we've taken a look. out of those 15 days he actually got to spend nine in hawaii. he had to spend six days here in d.c. working on the fiscal cliff negotiations. now, while he was in hawaii he got five rounds of golf, five different partners, about 30 hours on the golf course and four dinners out, to go back and forth the president had to spend

4:10 am
opposition for republicans. if the president goes forward, he is in for a real fight, likely to get him through but not going to be easy. >> a lot of big fights. this morning we're hearing they're gearing up to take over the nra over gun control in newtown. >> right now he has the public on his side but knows he has to move quickly. that's why vice president biden will report back likely before the president's inaugural on january 20th with his package of recommendations. much broader than simply gun control. also look at mental health issues and look at violence in the media. right now there's going to be a lot of resistance in the senate but they're going to look at things the president can do on his own through executive orders so they get something through. >> george stephanopoulos, thank you. and george has a big show this morning. his guest, key player in the fiscal cliff deal that just passed, the senate minority leader mitch mcconnell.

4:12 am
baby flew out the window. then i realized, oh, my god, my baby is not in my car anymore. >> reporter: the baby landed somewhere in the soft snow. china managed to crawl her way out of the wreckage frantically looking for her baby. >> so i was yelling for my baby. i couldn't find him and i couldn't see him. >> reporter: the driver of the pickup truck found gabriel buried at the bottom of a snow bank and picked him up. >> i thought the lady had him and she was sitting there crying. >> reporter: mom and baby were treated at a local hospital. >> when i got there, bless his little soul he was chewing on a pacifier looking around and it was just total relief knowing that he was all right. >> reporter: and this morning, mother and her son are safely back home and recovering. >> very thankful. very grateful, lucky. >> i think there was a lot of powers above that was watching over gabriel and china at the same time. everything happens for a reason.
